This 1969 6¢ Flag over the White House coil stamp First Day Cover bears a crisp Chicago, IL postmark dated May 30, 1969. The Artmaster cachet depicts the White House with a large waving American flag in the foreground, matching the stamp design exactly.
Issued during a period of national change and civic pride, the stamp highlights the enduring symbol of the flag flying above the executive mansion. The coil format was produced for high-volume postal use, making this FDC an interesting example of both definitive stamp production and patriotic iconography of the late 1960s.
A notable detail is the explicit “Coil Stamp” wording on the cachet, which distinguishes this issue from the sheet version released the same day. The clean Artmaster engraving and well-struck postmark give the cover strong visual appeal for display.
A fine addition for collectors of U.S. flag stamps, Artmaster cachets, or 1960s First Day Covers, this example remains in excellent philatelic condition with sharp corners and clear markings.
